FILIPINO ADOBO (PORK OR CHICKEN) WITH SLOW COOKER VARIATION



Filipino Adobo (Pork or Chicken) With Slow Cooker Variation image

For about 20 years this recipe was just a lovely memory. When DH was in grad school one of his professors invited the entire class and their families to enjoy a Filipino meal prepared by his wife, Priscilla. She fed about 50 of us seated on the floor in front of long rolls of paper! 20 years later, that professor is no longer at this school but my husband and his son-in-law now teach here. Rachel, Priscilla's daughter, shared her Mom's recipe with me. She has added slow cooker instructions to fit her busy lifestyle but it is still the same great flavor that her mom prepared for us over 20 years ago. Thanks Priscilla and Rachel!! **NOTES** - Cooking time 2 hours stove or 6 hours slow cooker. - Slow Cookers vary in cooking times - adjust according to your appliance. - Freezer instructions courtesy of Erindipity.

Time 15m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 -4 lbs pork (cut in 2-inch cubes) or 3 -4 lbs chicken (cut into serving pieces)
1/2 cup vinegar
1/2 cup soy sauce
1 cup water
2 -3 bay leaves, crumbled
2 teaspoons peppercorns (whole)
4 garlic cloves, crushed
1 medium onion, chopped
3/4 teaspoon ground pepper
2 teaspoons salt (optional, I do not put it in, it is what the original cook uses)

Steps:

  • Note: The original recipe just called for vinegar. I use Apple Cider Vinegar - just use what you have. Some reviewers have used rice vinegar and been pleased. Rice vinegar seems to have a touch of sweetness. Do what pleases you - experiment and have fun in the kitchen.
  • Stove top instructions.
  • Combine all of the ingredients in a large pot. (The women who shared the recipe with me put the spices into the pot freely. Reviewer Felina suggested tying the spices into a cheesecloth to so that you get the flavor but don't bite into the peppercorns while you eat the dish - a stainless tea ball works too. Do whichever please you).
  • Allow everything sit at room temperature for at least 15 minutes.
  • Bring to a boil then reduce heat to low; simmer for 1 1/2 - 2 hours (leave lid slightly ajar).
  • Remove lid and cook 10 minutes more.
  • Serve with rice.
  • Slow Cooker instructions.
  • Combine all of the ingredients in a slow cooker. (The women who shared the recipe with me put the spices into the pot freely. Reviewer Felina suggested tying the spices into a cheesecloth to so that you get the flavor but don't bite into the peppercorns while you eat the dish - a stainless tea ball works too. Do whichever please you).
  • Allow meat to sit at room temperature for at least 15 minutes.
  • Cook on high for 3 hours or on low for 6 hours until pork or chicken is done (time depends on your slow cooker).
  • Serve with rice.

  • To freeze: Combine all ingredients in a ziptop bag. Freeze.

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h55m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup cider vinegar or distilled white vinegar
1/3 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon brown sugar
2 teaspoons whole black peppercorns
10 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed
4 bay leaves
8 boneless, skinless chicken thighs (about 2 pounds)
Steamed white rice, for serving
Pickled cherry peppers, for garnish
2 scallions, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • In a slow cooker, combine the vinegar, soy sauce, brown sugar, peppercorns, garlic and bay leaves and stir to combine. Add the chicken, turning to coat evenly. Cover and cook the chicken on low until tender, 2 to 2 1/2 hours.
  • Remove the chicken from the slow cooker and place on a plate. Strain the cooking liquid into a small pot. Place over medium-high heat and simmer until reduced to a thick sauce. Place the chicken back in the slow cooker to stay warm while the sauce reduces.
  • Spoon some rice into serving bowls. Top with the chicken and some of the sauce, then garnish with the pickled peppers and scallions.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of chicken: Bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs or breasts are best for this recipe, as they will stay moist and flavorful during the long cooking time.
  • Use a good quality adobo sauce: The adobo sauce is the key to the flavor of this dish, so be sure to use a good quality brand. Look for a sauce that is made with real vinegar and spices, and avoid sauces that are made with a lot of sugar or thickeners.
  • Marinate the chicken overnight: This will help the chicken to absorb the flavors of the adobo sauce and make it even more flavorful. If you don't have time to marinate the chicken overnight, you can marinate it for at least 30 minutes.
  • Cook the chicken on low heat: This will help to prevent the chicken from drying out. Cook the chicken for at least 6 hours, or until it is cooked through.
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite sides: Adobo chicken is traditionally served with rice and beans, but it can also be served with roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or your favorite salad.

Conclusion:

Adobo chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a busy weeknight meal. With just a few simple ingredients and a slow cooker, you can create a flavorful and satisfying meal that the whole family will love. So next time you're looking for a simple and delicious dinner idea, give adobo chicken a try!
